Four Seasons Hualalai

The Four Seasons Hualalai illuminates the best of Hawaii’s natural allure: from the open-air lobby with bright floral arrangements to the guest bungalows carved into the black lava earth with ocean views (some have outdoor showers). Two outdoor pools offer visitors a choice of lounging in private tiki huts or white-tented cabanas. Either way, staff dotes on guests’ every poolside request.
